      Nubia produced wonderful devices but it stumbled after the US ban. Now they are coming again. I used Nubia z11 max in 2016 and I loved it. My mom is still using the same phone though I gave her Samsung A53. She loves 7 years old Nubia more than the latest Samsung 😅

      Yes, hard to find any good reviews of it, seems to get little coverage in the west.
      For some reason its not even listed on the official Chinese website of Nubia any more.
      Personally I can't stand any notches or cutout front cameras, floating islands etc. I think its so incredibly ugly, I gladly trade a worse selfie that I use once every month for that full uninterrupted screen.
      How's your experience so far, any issues with the UI or hardware in general?

  • @lltechview
    @lltechview 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

    Like this phone. MyOS surprised me with all the configurations it offers. Like gestures for turning on the flash light with the typical Motorola gesture.
    Customizability with Super Wallpaper like effects.
    Softwarewise impressed a bit as I did not expect this.
    5G no issue in Germany, Cologne which is good.
    Cameras I am quite happy with the main cam. The ultrawide is a disappointment especially for photos. Washed out in RAW and overpunchy colours in JPG and bad lense basically with lots of distortion and softness to towards the edges.
    I did not expect anything from the telezoom but it surprised me aswell. Not bad for a 8 MP shooter at 80mm. They do some upscaling to 14 MP here.
    Really what got me hooked is the 35mm field of view and the default camera app which offers lots of settings and tweaks. Like for example 5 mins exposure time which I did not see on any other phone.
    For the bright colour clipping. Much better with Street mode and the Fujifilm filter

    • @Techtablets
      @Techtablets  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Yes the main camera is really nice. Love the portraits of my kids it delivers. Good tip with the bright colours to stop the clipping using the street mode + filter. myOS has so much customisation more than I expected overall very good skin. Can you please run 3DMark wild life extreme stress test and see if it crashes and powers off the phone? My unit might be faulty.

      @lltechview 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      @@Techtablets Yeah the test is running in loop 10/20 currently. I will post my update if it even finishes running. I think its overheating pretty much. The sides are very hot (back is ok to touch sides almost unbearble hot)
      Temperature here currently 24°C indoors (no AC) outside 30°C
      So could understand it overheating outdoors but should not do this indoors with reasonable temperature.
      Maybe taking off the case could help. Anyway for sure they need to optimize this a bit. In gaming however I did not experience such heat up yet. Even 4k video editing and rendering did not get so hot. Maybe it detects the benchmark and goes into "full turbo lets burn the hands of my user" mode 😅

    Great review as usual and thank you for reviewing these good phones from these companies as they're better alternatives for regular phones we have in our limited markets
    My questions are:
    Considering this a Chinese ROM does have a native call recorder option in its native phone app like other phones with Chinese ROMs ?
    Second question is does it support third party launcher as a default with gestures navigation or not?

The competition is so strong now and if the spec is not extreme (I know this is edged to the cameras) I doubt anyone would have real interest buying it.

    I believe more phones should include 4k@120fps , the purpose of a 120fps video is slow motion, right ? I believe snapdragon 8 gen 2 has more than enough power to do that , Sony, Asus and Oneplus have been doing it since snapdragon 888 if I am not mistaken

    • @Techtablets
      @Techtablets  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes for slow motion so you can slow it to 60fps or 30fps and it looks great but the qualify is quite meh at 120 fps doesn't seem like it's actually 4k but more like QHD upscaled.

      Yes most are 24mm-27mm, my S23 Ultra is 24mm much wider. Some people might be put off from the focal length coming from a Samsung or Apple. But for portraits it the lens I would go for and it's in a phone which is great. Main camera is very good and they are working on a 1-inch sensor model of this phone (rumored)

    13mm 125 degree up to 80mm 2.3X optical zoom is really giving variety choices to user. 4k 120fps is rare as well. nubia z50 had 8k macro video recording, hopefully this one also supports it as well. usb 3.1 with display out is great and usually not seen in phones below 800$. flicker option in usb debugging can help for some people's eyes strains. street mode is the one that their team optimized and with gcam shots that focused youtuber parikov Matvey on nubia phones released video, greater result were achieved. I had seen 1inch video released from their leaders in nubia team but if only they would've used 6000-7000mah, wireless charging, better thicker cooling system, 3,5 jack to compensate for the camera bump of 2cm and as a result, gives it less stick out on the whole package , I believe many users will have accept it as win solution and a unique phone to consider buying for years.

    This Nubia phone is really interesting, and in fact I prefer more flat displays over curved displays. The back of the phone is top. I really love this camera style finish. Specs are very good. Price is nice, for a flagship. Unfortunately those bugs with the camera are the main concern. To buy this phone, you need to be sure they fix such issues. The problem it's a Chinese phone and it's not for everyone to check on forums for software updates fixing these kind of bugs. A 1" sensor would be super cool, but then you also need a better zoom sensor, because a 8MP non periscope zoom sensor, is very poor, not to mention the poor quality of the front facing camera. There's not perfect phone, but if they only fixed those bugs, this phone could be very appealing for many, outside the Chinese market!

    • @Techtablets
